Why do you think you are the best candidate for this position?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Synaptics (San Jose, CA) in Oct 2015

Kind of weird, interviews were not always scheduled in advance for phone calls. Hiring manager was late for in person interview. Seemed unprepared and was in a hurry. Group panel was better but the panel seemed guarded.
